Shortly, EmailQuestionnaire is a simple method to poll your contacts by sending them the form within the email. Concretely, EmailQuestionnaire is a set of server tools and methods for client content to support you to send a questionnaire per email. The server tools are made as a web-application based on the Java Servlet specification; they store the questionnaires' answers in XML files and show the result as a tabulated HTML which can be easily copied to statistics programmes.
This whole project is under the Apache Public License, see LICENSE.txt.
For you to apply these tools, you shall need a servlet container such as Apache Tomcat and some capability to edit HTML forms (easily acquired through the very many tutorials).
The project's documentation includes the following documents to get you started:
- How to install? A description of the technical steps to install and configure the survey and results web-application, including write-rights.
- How to create an email-questionnaire? A description of the typical steps to create the HTML and use it in a mail that you can send to the persons being polled. Please note the supported email clients.
- How to process results? A workflow description to ensure a swift and live analysis of the questionnaire results.
